Cecilia Pérez, former Sports Minister and metropolitan intendant, has assumed the presidency of Azul Azul, the concessionaire managing Universidad de Chile, becoming the first woman to lead a Primera División club in Chile. She replaces Michael Clark, who resigned last week amid a sanction from the Financial Market Commission over the Sartor case. Pérez pledged teamwork to improve sports and financial performance, including the dream of a new stadium.
Universidad de Chile defeated Universidad Católica 1-0 in the 202nd Universitario Classic at Estadio Nacional with 45,000 spectators. Juan Martín Lucero scored the lone goal in the 16th minute, ending a nearly year-long drought. Youngsters Agustín Arce and Ignacio Vásquez shone in Fernando Gago's victory.

Ñublense defeated Universidad de Chile 1-0 at Estadio Bicentenario Nelson Oyarzún in Chillán, courtesy of a free kick by Diego Céspedes in the 90+2nd minute. The match was overshadowed by controversial refereeing from Cristián Galaz, particularly a foul by Jovany Campusano on Javier Altamirano that went unpunished. The Red Devils now have 16 points and surpass the Blues in the Primera División standings.
